I'm planning on it also.. trying to locate a trailer to take my Mini down.. 3 hours might blow the little thing up!! My only concern is that my Mini has a 6 digit vin.. something like 975938.. will that count for the record?

i think that as long as you have a VIN it will count......

That looks like it'd be a blast to be apart of.

Waiting for activation, but I'll be there as long as the weather doesn't cancel it. That'll be at least 2 from M2C2.

There is no registration fee or pre-registration. We need all MINI/Minis there by 2pm. All owners will complete an entry form to include their VIN. At 3pm we roll. The entry forms will be forwarded to GWR along with picture and film evidence.

Look forward to meeting everyone.

Cheers.

We cannot participate, but both of us are Navy vets (VN era) and would love to contribute. Can we purchase shirts in absentia?

Hey everyone,

As many of you know the East Coast is trying set a new record for number of MINIs in a parade, if you know of anyone near Virginia Beach that may not of heard about this attempt PLEASE send them the pic below! Let's get this record back in the USA, right now the record is held in England!! All help is really appreciated!! And if you can make it....... whodewho and all the better!!

Time for the big weekend push for ALL MINI owners !!! You can save this image on your PC and email it to everyone you know who owns or may know someone who owns a MINI!!
Also, print out the pic if you are out of flyers!!!
We are down to the wire to get every available MINI informed so we can beat the record!!!!!
FYI.... we are meeting at the Sportsplex.... across the road from the Ampitheather..... just look for all the MINIs :D

Is there a carwash (not drivethrough) anywhere near the starting point? I'd like to get the road dust off the car before the event.

Are you coming up on 664 to 64?? I f I knew which way you were planning to come to the staging area I could direct you or give you an address to plug into mapquest or nav system for a car wash. - larry

I'll be coming into town on 58, then either 64 or 264 (which would be better?) to 165.
